If you\u2019re especially not an Apple phone then you\u2019re probably tired and maybe frustrated about what both experts and consumers have to say. To give you some breathing room, we\u2019ll veer off from such talks. Instead, we\u2019ll zoom in on what Samsung latest offer at the moment.<\/p>\n<p>Giving consumers and Apple a run for their money is the Samsung Galaxy S5. Rather than revolutionize the mobile phone world, Samsung opted to evolve instead knowing that Apple is unbeatable when it comes to the former.<\/p>\n<p>Compared to its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy S5 can be summed up in one word \u2013 better. The camera is better giving users clearer images and faster speed. The batter is larger and offers a longer battery life. When it comes to the screen, it\u2019s also bigger not to mention brighter. But more important, the processor is guaranteed to be quicker and hugely powerful.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yesmobilephone.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/P1060941-580-90.jpg\" rel=\"wp-prettyPhoto[1319] external noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\"><img fetchpriority=\"low\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1320 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yesmobilephone.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/P1060941-580-90.jpg\" alt=\"P1060941-580-90\" width=\"580\" height=\"325\" loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In short, the latest Samsung offering is designed to make your user mobile experience better in every respect.<\/p>\n<p>For a die-hard Samsung fan and Android user, the Samsung Galaxy S5 is the kind of phone that you won\u2019t have second thoughts about getting. Sure it has its downsides like slow background and not entirely a very impressive design. Nonetheless, the price for the phone which is around \u00a3400 to \u00a3500 in the UK for the Sim-free options makes the deal a tad more attractive. This is true at least if you consider and compare the phone\u2019s price from the previous Samsung Galaxy offers.<\/p>\n<p>So while Apple fans are raving about their newest iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus handsets, Samsung users are also reveling in what the brand has been and will be offering in the coming months.<\/p>\n<p>Those who love bigger, better and brighter screens will love the Samsung Galaxy S5. If you\u2019re not comfortable with big, there\u2019s always the mini version of the model. Also coming your way is the highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy Alpha. It is also a smaller phone just like the mini but with the same power that the Samsung Galaxy S5 can offer.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, Samsung with its latest offers seems to be the only company that gives Apple some good competition. While Samsung Galaxy S5\u2019s design has more room for improvement, it\u2019s good enough in terms of performance and other improvements from the previous offers. It won\u2019t in any case outdo Apple\u2019s latest iPhones but it offers users who\u2019ve been Samsung fans from the beginning something to look forward to.<\/p>\n<p><a
